Welcoming Administrative Coordinator: Joy Purvis

We are so excited to share that we have a new member on our team!

Joy Purvis grew up in southern Italy in a missionary family, which probably explains her love of food, travel, and people. She received a bachelor’s degree from Lancaster Bible College, where she focused on early elementary education. She then served for eight years as the Assistant Director for Saints Bible Institute, a Christian study abroad program in San Lorenzo, Italy.

She lives in Chapel Hill with her husband, Jeremy, who is a faculty member at UNC, and their three rambunctious children: Jackson, Luke, and Caroline. She enjoys life’s simple pleasures: good food, the great outdoors, and spending time with friends.

Prior to her role as the Administrative Coordinator, which started Jan. 4, Joy served as a volunteer for the Study Center, helping to lead student move-in lunches; prepare for the Wilberforce conference; and mentor Study Center Fellows.
